Hi, my camera is working with shade from trees and the overhang with less than 8 hours of sunlight per day. Only issue is the cold
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.or the Wasserstein Solar Panel for the Google Nest Cam (Battery), consistent exposure to sunlight is essential for optimal performance. The panel is designed to maintain a continuous charge under good sunlight conditions. Generally, 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight per day is sufficient to keep the camera's battery topped up, depending on usage patterns and environmental conditions. In a scenario where your location receives sun for most of the day with some occasional shade from trees, it should still perform reasonably well. However, the effectiveness may vary based on how much the shade affects the overall sunlight exposure. For a setup with up to 12 hours of partial sun where most of the time is sunny with some shaded periods, feedback indicates that it can still sustain the camera’s charge, though it may not keep the battery at full capacity during high usage or on days with extended cloud cover.
